Late night eating and sleep?

Question

Someone told me that eating late at night will cause me to have bad dreams- thats what it does to her daughter and i've seen it happen- but then my other friend looked it up and said that she read an article that said eating late at night can cause you to remember your dreams. I don't know where she read this article but i was wondering if anyone knows what late night eating does to your sleep or dreams (please don't answer with "eating after 7- it goes right to your hips")

Answer 1

Well, late night eating does give you nightmares, since you're digesting, specially if you sleep face down. I used to eat right before I slept but it just kept me awake at night (and did make gain weight).
